Photography

For photography I find that the pictures themselves only really matter the further away you are from a potential client. For example, I could show this sub my photos and maybe a lot of people would like it. But I could go up to people on the street and show them my photos and almost everyone would like them, and anyone needing a photographer, who doesn't already know one, will ask me about rates

If you're sitting off to the side thinking that your photos should be good enough to speak for themselves, think again because everyone thinks that in almost every field where you have the option to work by yourself. Every solo person believes that the world will just gravitate towards their art and see all the hard work that went into creating it. It just doesn't work that way for everyone, and honestly, the true art of whatever you do will more than likely be lost on those willing to pay for it

So if you work, go out there and get that work. If you have good gear then you could honestly get work just by taking photos of squirrels. You just need to make sure people can interact with you while you talk about your photos. Photography is more than just taking photos and gear if you want money to change hands. It's also about selling the idea of a good photo, and you gotta realize that although a picture may be worth a thousand words, it will never be capable of telling someone else why they should buy it or hire the photographer

So stop ranting on here and go out there and get that money
